After having taught go-ju-ryu karate for some years I got in touch with taijiquan. I was fascinated by the light and agile movements. I learnt a Yang style long form (103 postures), studied the Cheng Manching style and the Chen Style. When I got in touch with the Deyin Taijiquan Institute, I was so impressed by Faye's and Tary's teaching, that I decided to become an instructor for their Institute. Together with Peter Jones I run classes for beginners and advanced students in Karlsruhe, Germany. Despite the long journey I always look forward to going to Telford to increase my Taiji knowledge and have my performance corrected.
